Teens Threatened With Arrest for Praying—in America!

It's hard to believe American teenagers could be arrested for delivering a prayer, but that's the kind of nation we live in—a nation that was fundamentally transformed by the previous presidential administration.

In 2011, the class president at Hampton High School in Tennessee wanted to deliver a pray at graduation. The principal issued an edict that any child who attempted to pray would be stopped, escorted from the building by police and arrested.

That incident was one of dozens included in a stunning new Family Research Council report documenting a significant upsurge in government hostility to religion.

Since 2014 there has been a 76 percent increase in religious freedom violations, according to "Hostility to Religion: The Growing Threat to Religious Liberty in America."

"The recent spike in government-driven religious hostility is sad, but not surprising, especially considering the Obama administration's antagonism toward biblical Christianity," Family Research Council president Tony Perkins said.

Perkins said the 66-page report underscores the legitimacy of the actions taken by President Trump to end polices in federal agencies that "fan the flames of this religious intolerance."

"This report is designed to quantify the threat to our First [Amendment] freedom and to challenge Americans to use their God-given freedoms to protect these freedoms we enjoy as Americans," Perkins said.

Even though there is an increase in hostility, there is some good news.

Perkins noted "the growing courage of Christians, especially young Christians, to defend both their faith and their freedoms."

That's one of the reasons I wrote The Deplorables' Guide to Making America Great Again. I wanted to provide Americans with a handbook on how they can restore traditional values to their communities.

Among the cases listed in the report:

• An 11-year-old student in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, was penalized for mentioning Jesus in a Christmas poetry assignment.
• Principal Frank Lay and Athletic Director Robert Freedom were charged with criminal contempt because they prayed over a meal. The pair was later found not guilty of violating an injunction banning the promotion of religious events at school.
• A Christian acapella group at James Madison University was told they could not perform "Mary Did You Know" because it was religious. They were directed to sing only secular songs.
• An Ohio library banned a Christian group from meeting to discuss natural marriage unless the group also included supports of same-sex marriage.
• Allstate Insurance Company fired a staffer for allegedly using a company laptop to write a column against homosexuality. The company alleged said the column violated its diversity standards.
• San Diego firefighters were threatened with disciplinary action if they refused to participate in a gay pride parade. The firefighters were subjected to verbal abuse and sexual gestures during the parade.
• A woman who rented out rooms in her home was sued after she refused to rent to a same-sex couple.
•  An Oklahoma bank was forced to remove religious Christmas decorations under orders from the Federal Reserve.

 Travis Weber, FRC's director of the Center for Religious Liberty, said he hopes the report will be a wake-up call for people of faith.

"In a society like ours, we must be the guardians of our own freedom," he said. "Anyone who desires freedom in the future must take note of what these trends tell us about our freedom right now—relative to where we have come from—in order to protect freedom from going forward."

Arch of Ba’al Is New World Order’s Model for “Temple of Darkness” in Jerusalem, Believes Rabbi

A replica of an ancient Roman triumphal arch reappeared in Italy last week, accompanying yet another summit of world leaders while attracting over two million visitors since its presentation three weeks ago. One rabbi, an expert in the New World Order, believes that the arch is the first step towards building a ‘Temple of Darkness’ in Jerusalem.

The arch is a reproduction of a Roman victory arch built in Palmyra, Syria in the second century CE for a temple where pagans prayed to the Mesopotamian god, Bel, also known as Ba’al, in a form of idol worship that figures prominently in the Bible. The original arch was destroyed by the Islamic State in 2015, but last year, the Institute for Digital Archaeology used proprietary 3-D printing technology to reproduce the arch out of marble.

Unlike other pieces of its kind displayed in museums, the reincarnation of the Arch of Palmyra has been appearing in the most peculiar places while attracting more attention than the original arch in Syria. During its month long visit scheduled to accompany the G7 Summit of world leaders, millions of tourists came to Arona, Sicily to view the replica.

Rabbi Daniel Asore, a member of the nascent Sanhedrin, described what he believes is the significant role this replica of the Arch of Palmyra will play in the New World Order.

“This arch is the first step in that process, awakening an interest in people to paganism and as a focal point for world leaders to gather around,” the rabbi said. Intense public interest has indeed followed the arch on its globe-hopping journey, as two million Italians can attest.

World leaders seem especially drawn to the arch. In fact, it was assembled as the centerpiece for the World Government Summit, an international meeting of global leaders in Dubai last February. The Dubai Future Foundation (DFF) has joined in the project with Oxford University’s Institute of Digital Archaeology (IDA) and Harvard University.

In February, the arch was assembled again as the centerpiece for the World Government Summit in Dubai, an international meeting of global leaders to discuss policy. “Dubai is working towards establishing a world government, as seen by their hosting the summit” the rabbi claimed. “But the nature of their intentions is obvious just from looking at the city. Unlike any other city in the world, all the buildings in Dubai are triangular, patterned after the pyramids in Egypt.”

“Their ultimate goal is to usurp the Bible and create the Third Temple in Jerusalem, but for the worship of darkness, and not the worship of light,” the rabbi explained. “The New World Order worships science and technology, so it is fitting they should use this 3-D printing to create their Temple.”

He also pointed to the UN efforts to erase the connection between Israel and the Temple Mount.

“[The New World Order is] using the UN, an aspect of the world government effort, to clear the way for their Temple of Darkness,” Rabbi Asore said. “Part of that is to create a conflict out of thin air, to set the Arabs against the Jews, so that we will cancel each other out, leaving anarchy and destruction behind.”

The French Ministry of Defense has underwritten over $1 million towards the proprietary 3-D technology used to create the replica. The ministry released a statement explaining that the technology “can be used by troops on the ground and scholars via their laptops anywhere to assess the condition of monuments and sites at risk”.

Rabbi Asore suspected more sinister motives behind the French investment, giving a rather startling speculation on its origins.

“After the Templars, the first Masons, left Jerusalem in the Medieval period, they fled to France. It may be that some influence remains in the power structure in France, via the New World Order and the Masons,” he suggested.

The first appearance of the arch was in April last year at London’s Trafalgar Square for United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) World Heritage Week. The unveiling coincided with the most important pagan holiday of the year, Beltane, ushering is a 13-day period known in the occult as “the Blood Sacrifice to the Beast”, which was traditionally celebrated with child sacrifice and bisexual orgies.

University to Remove Crosses, Bibles and Altar from Campus Chapel

East Central University said they will remove crosses, Bibles and other religious symbols from a campus chapel to appease a bunch of out-of-town agitators.

It's unclear when the Oklahoma school will commence with the Christian cleansing of the Kathryn P. Boswell Memorial Chapel. The chapel opened in 1957.

"We will continue to use the building as we always have, for all faiths," ECU President Katricia Pierson said in a statement to the Ada News. "We do not want to presume to embrace one faith over another. We support all cultures and attempt to make them comfortable when they are here."

The university's president went on to say they are "looking at the feasibility of removing the cross on the steeple, but need to respond to the request for removal of religious icons from the chapel."

"We are exploring options for preserving the items," she said.

So on the bright side, it appears East Central University will not burn the Bibles or toss the crosses into a wood chipper.

Americans United for the Separation of Church and State is responsible for the Christian cleansing at ECU. They fired off a terse letter accusing the school of displaying "religious iconography." That letter was obtained by the Ada News.

"These displays include Latin crosses on the top of and inside the building, Bibles and a Christian altar," the letter stated. "While it is legal for a public university to have a space that can be used by students for religious worship so long as that space is not dedicated solely to that purpose, it is a violation of the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution to display religious iconography on government property."

That's a great big load of legal malarkey.

Hiram Sasser, director of litigation for First Liberty Institute, said there is federal precedent to maintain chapels in taxpayer-funded facilities.

"We have a Congressional Prayer Room in the Capitol, we have chapels in government-owned airports and many other government-owned chapels," Sasser told me.

Sasser suspects Americans United is just testing Oklahoma's new attorney general, Mike Hunter.

"They want to see if he backs down or stands up to their ridiculous claims, and I predict Mike Hunter will fight hard to preserve this historic chapel," Sasser said.

Meanwhile, many Oklahomans are furious over the university's decision to capitulate to those who want to eradicate Christianity from the public marketplace.

"I feel betrayed by our own country, upset that this could take place in America," alum Jill Tucker Brown told me. "We are a nation founded on Christianity."

Ms. Brown believes the university should stand up to the atheist and secularist bullies.

"I think it is absurd that anyone would go to this length (to remove the cross)," she told me. "If this university does not stand up for their rights, this will not be their only fight."

Anita Thomas is also a graduate of East Central University and she is heartbroken over the news.

"I am heartbroken because our country has become a place where things like this can happen," she told me. "

Much like the Islamic radicals, the atheists and secularists want to erase Christianity from the public marketplace. And they are waging their cultural jihad not with bombs—but with lawsuits.

As I wrote in The Deplorables' Guide to Making America Great Again, it is time for patriots to mobilize and fight back. Appeasement is not the answer.

First, contact the university's president and politely voice your opinion. Second, contact Oklahoma Attorney General Mike Hunter and urge him to fight back against this godless scourge. And finally, the university's alumni should immediately halt all funding.

If they remove the cross from the chapel—we should remove "In God We Trust" from their bank account.
